Our house feels really empty without Hanouf.. I really miss her!
She's in her honeymoon with her husband, 3gbale lol.
I'm spending the regular days in school, it's really boring..
And tomorrow we have something like jnadrya and I'm acting in a stupid play as an old woman mn 7rem awal elgdemen. Bs 3ade its wednesday a5eran.
---
I'm up, I went to the bathroom, wore my uniform, and went straight to school.
W9alt elmdrsa.
All the girls were wearing jlabyat except me! Oh shit I forgot it!!
Maha: Lesh mo labsa?
Me: Nseeet
I went to the teacher who's arranging these stuff.
Me: Nseet ajeb lbse
The teacher: 5ale swagk yjebha bsr3a

I went to the administration and called Ahmed the driver.

Ahmed: Same 6al 3omrk

Bss men yjeb my stuff? What a luck! Wait, Sultan is absent today and he has nothing, can I call him and ask him for the favor? Well I'm in a massive need for them so lets try my luck.
I went back to the administration and dialed his number..

Sultan: 3sa ma shar feek shy lesh daga?
Me: Mafenee shy esm3ni

I called Dalia and told her that Sultan is coming 3shan t36eh.
I went back to the class, there were no teacher. All the girls are wearing the jlabyat and waiting for the time lel play.
I sat with them then my phone vibrated..
Oh Sultan arrived.
Ast24nt mn eledara enee aro7 ajeb ashya2ee.
I went to the door.
Called sultan..
Me: Weenk?
Sultan: E6l3e bra
I went outside and there he was in his car.
I walked towards the car.
Me: Hala. Sorry walla t3btk m3i.
He gave me the bag.
Sultan: Wsh da3wa
Me: Yalla bye lazm aro7
Sultan: Ya5te es7be 3lehom shway 5lek m3i mshtag lk
Me: La t5yl bs elzbda shokrn bye
Sultan: Bye
I went back.
We did the play and it was really ridicules! No one was paying attention at all. Bs 3ade ahm shy anbs6na.
I went back home.
---
I kissed my mother's forehead then went upstairs and took a shower.
I checked my mobile.
2 Bbm chats.
One from Maha.
Bbm chat:
Maha: Jaya elyoom beet Hala?
Me: Ya5te wde bs ma a3rfha zeen
Maha: 3ade please t3ale, klna bnru7!
Me: Meen klna?
Maha: Ghada w Dana
Me: Ok
Maha: T3ale 3la betee, bn6l3 m3 b39'
Me: 6yb
I closed her chat and opened the other one. It's from Sultan.
I replied to what he was saying, while I'm typing I got a message.
I closed his chat to check the message.
I opened it..
“ T6wrnaa ya Mishoo t6wrna :p”
The message is from Saad. What does he mean? Have he sent it by mistake? But he said my name..
I replied.
“Wsho?”
He texted me back in less than 10 seconds.
“Yjek lelmdrsa?”
WHAT?
If he's talking about Sultan, he misunderstood!
I said “Esh g9dk?”
“La b3d m36eek kees ;)” He replied.
“M36enee kees feeh a3'ra9'ee w mama gaylaaa lah yjeeb lee elkees 3shan elsawag msh3'oool!! w ent wsh d5lk???!” I said.
I lied. Mama malha d5l.
I got really mad. 5eer ygol k4a?
“lol akeed?” He replied.
“Bs fhmne lesh abrerlk?” I said.
“Umm 3shank t7benee?” He replied.
He's back to being 7ywan or what? Actually he have two faces!
I ignored him and took a nap.
I woke up by billions of calls from Maha!
I answered her half asleep.
Me: 5eer?
Maha: Ta3ale yalla
Me: 6yb
I hanged up and went to the bathroom and washed my face then got dressed, wore my 3baya, called Ahmad and I'm ready to go!
---
W9alt beet Maha. There were Ghada and Dana already. I hugged them, although I saw them in school today.We stayed for half an hour then we went to Hala's house.
Slamt 3la Hala and her cousin.
We sat w solfna w k4a, then her mother came w slmna 3leha.
Her mother: Ente Msha3l Alflani?
Me: Ee
Her mother: Slmele 3la omk w gole laha ene knt m3ha bl mtws6 w bt4krni
Me: Enshallah yw9l
We spent and amazing day at her house then we went back to Maha's house.
Ghada and Dana went back to thier houses and I'm sleeping-over at Maha's.---
We watched a movie. A scary one.
I don't remember its name bs mra y5wf.. lmn Maha tro7 el7mam ma tsakr elbab mn el5of. LOL.
After the movie we talked about Saad.
Maha: Msha3l ente t7bena?
Me: Madre a7s ene a7ba
Maha: Ymkn ente 5aga 3leh bs
Me: La wsh a5g 3leh kl 4e elftra
Maha: La ymkn entee bs 5aga 3leeh wla 3omrk 7beteh
Me: Ymkn..
We chatted a bit then she laid in her bed and slept, but I couldn't sleep.
I was thinking about what she said.. “ ymkn entee bs 5aga 3leeh wla 3omrk 7beteh”.
I don't love Saad ya3ne? I don't have feelings for him?
Maybe I just liked him. OMG klam Maha y3lg blmo5.
I kept thinking and thinking till it's really late so I just tried to sleep till I did.
---
I woke up 3:00 PM. I slept 12 hours!! Mashalla.
I looked at Maha, she's still sleeping..
I got up from my bed to wake her up.
Me: Maha Maha
Maha: O99 ma nmt kwais
Me: Kele zg nayma akthr mne gomee
Maha: Amma
And she laughed. Ya allah mra 3'bya.
A7ad y6'7k w ho lsa ma ft7 3yona?
She got up and we ate in her room.
My phone is ringing.. its my mother!
I answered.
Mama: Msha3l

Mama: Erj3ee elbeet el7en
Me: Hw lesh?
Mama: Bs
Me: Mama elyum bn6l3 ana w Maha
Mama: Ta3ale ente wyaha w e6l3o b3d ma a7akek

I told Maha, so we went to my house.

Mama: Ta3alo ta3alo
She was smiling, 7mdellah knt a7sb fe shy..
I kissed her forehead and we sat.
Mama: Esm3ene ya msha3l

Mama: T3rfen flana alflani?
She said esm um Hala.

Good. I thought she said yes or something.
Mama: Ha wsh glte?
Me: Madre ma gd shftah wla a3rfah
She grabbed her phone w g3dt t7os then finally showed me his picture. I admit it, he's gorgeous! Mra jameel mashallah.
She showed Maha the picture too.
Mra embayn 3leha enaha 5gt so I just laughed.
Mama: Ee yalla esh rayk?
Me: Madre
Maha said in a low voice “3'beya” and my mother heard her.
Mama: Ee wallah
And she laughed.
Mama: W tra rsalt 9ortk laha 3shan yshofk
Mama: Esm3ene 7bebte ente fkre w gole le wsh 8rarte bs tra Sultan rf6'teh w traha for9a ma tet3w6', wld nas w mt3lm w ma benkom ela snten w mafeh ela kl 5eer.Me: Enshalla
I went with Maha to my room.
Maha: 8sm bellah 3'beya
Me: Kele zg
Maha: 3shan Saad ma wafgte?
Me: Esh d5lah?
A9lan I figured out after what Maha said that I just had a crush on Saad, it wan't love.
Maha: Madre 3nk
I didn't give an answer to my mother ya3ne ma 3ayet! I'm gonna think about it, mo l3ba awafg 3la 6ool. It's marriage tra!
It was silence for minutes and Maha was using her mobile.
Maha: Lgeetaa
Me: Wsho?
Maha: Abdualziz lgeta btwitter
She gave me her mobile and I checked his following, followers, tweets, mentions... everything!
He's following his sister and a girl with his same family name, his cousin maybe. 3'reba, wld mo msawe follow lbnat.
One of his tweets was.. “ Awl mra y3jbnee 4oog omee =))”
He tweeted it today. Lol yg9dnee? I think so.
---
Kan fe Ghada bs.
We told them about the 56ba and all of them said 3'beya wafge speech.
On my way back to my house, I was talking to Sultan on bbm.
Bbm chat:
Sultan: Ee wsh swete elyoom?
Me: R7t beet Dana you?
Sultan: 6l3t m3 el3yal
Me: T5yl mama esh galt le elyoom..
Sultan: Esh?
I told him about the56ba thingy. I'm expecting enah y39b madre leh.
Sultan: Mbroook <3
Not what I was expecting.. 7mdellah ma 39b k4a a7sn.
Me: Allah ybark feek<3
We chatted.
W9lt elbeet, and went to my bed.
I opened my laptop and I was checking my timeline on twitter.
Sultan tweeted 15 minutes ago “Ouch.”
What's wrong? La ykon 3shan el56ba?
I opened his chat and checked when did I told him about the engagement.. It was 15 minutes ago!
I closed the laptop.
I want to ask him but I can't..
I left my phone on the charger and was trying to sleep but I couldn't!
I opened my phone.
And talked to Sultan.
Bbm chat:
Me: Sultan
Sultan: 3yoon Sultan?
Me: Tslam 3yonk
Me: Esh feek?
Sultan: Mafenee shy lesh :o
Me: Your tweets..

Me: Sultan ana ma wafgt 3la el56ba lsa!
I was typing and I'm about to send but he said..
Sultan: Wsh glna? 5la9 glt swe end chat w bs

Sultan: E7kee bs eb shy thanee lw sm7te?
Me: Ok
Sultan: Ana bnam el7een bye ;*
Me: Goodnight <3
Sultan: You too<3
7RAM. He really loves me!!!
I'll be really stupid if I said yes to Abdulaziz.
I know that Sultan is my friend but Abdulaziz is a complete stranger!
Choosing Sultan is way better..
Bs ho fk el5i6ba. Didn't he?
5la9! I really need to stop thinking!
But I can't..
If I said yes to Abdulaziz, it will be a new life.. But Sultan is my friend and I know him for a long time! Omg I'm just repeating the thoughts.
Wde Mama t3'9bne 3la ay wa7d mnhom w ary7 bale.
After all of these thoughts, I finally slept!
---
When I woke up, I went downstairs and I sat with my mother.
She asked me again about my opinion about Abdulaziz but I wasn't answering. Knt bs ahz rasee.
Mama: Ya3ne ee? wafgte?
Lfet rasi ymen ysar, ya3ne la.
Mama: Tbena?
Swet brase foog t7t, ya3ne ee.
Mama: 5la9 mwafga?
Lfet rasi ymeen ysar, y3ne la.
Mama: Mwafga wla la?
Rf3t ktfee w mdet 5shte, ya3ne madre.
She got really mad and ignored me. I laughed at her.
Shrbt m3aha gahwa w solfna then she asked me again.
I didn't answer.
She gave me a look.
Then she called someone..
She said ahlen kefk, keef ek3yal 5rabee6. Then she said that I said yes about the engagement. Oh fuck she's on the phone with Abdulaziz's mother!
I was dying and waiting for her to hang up and she finally did!
Me: Wshoo wshoo?
Mama: Esh?
Me: Lesh tgolen eni mwafga?
Mama: Elskoot 3lamt elri6'a
I actually didn't get mad or anything.
I opened my mobile..
Sultan had an :s smiley beside his name!
I asked him what's wrong..
Bbm chat:
Sultan: ommi 3la kefha 56abt le elee tbee :s
Me: Meen?
Sultan: Bnt 5alte Areeb
Y33! Do you remember her? She told me ene afk el5i6ba m3 Sultan! Actually I felt kind of jealous.
We talked and talked till he asked me about Abdulaziz..
I told him about what my mother did.
Sultan: 5era..
Sultan: Mabrook allah ywfgkom<3
He must be heartbroken! 7ramm.
Me: Allah ybark feek, ameen <3
---
10 days later.
My mother told everyone about the engagement, it's official. I've saw Abdulaziz face to face.
I got a lot of mabrok on twitter, bbm, in school. Everywhere!
Hanouf came back, I hugged her really tight when I saw her.
she's all tanned up now. Mra 7lo lonha mashallah.
She've sent a broadcast about the engagement, w w9l l'Anoud el5br. Akeed Saad 3rf.
When Hanouf went back to her house.. Its really weird to say “her house” bs 3ade I'm going to get used to it.
Elzbda when she went back, I got a message from Saad.
“Mabrooooooooooookk 3gbal ma nfr7 eb 6lagkom elgreeb enshallah”
I said “Allah ybark feek” and ignored the rest.
He's really.. I don't know what to say bs 9dg mut5lf elwld. Feeh enf9am! Mutnag9' klama..
---
AFTER 2 YEARS!!
When I knew Abdulaziz well, I fell for him. I'm in deep love with Abdulaziz.
But Saad? It was 7ob murah8a nothing more. Now I know the real love!
And maybe Sultan kaman 3rf enah ma kan y7bne 9dg. We were young tra!
Oh and he didn't marry bnt 5alti Areeb, and I actually have no idea about his life or anything. He switched to an iPhone so we stopped talking a year ago!
---
24 hours left for my big day!!
And I'm really really NERVOUS!!
El7een 3rft sh3oor Hanouf..
I can't sleep, I really can't. But I have to! Tomorrow is my wedding. 5la9 I'm finally getting married!
Its 10:00 PM.
Mama galt le anam badre but I can't!! I'm really excited but nervous too!
I tried and tried till I finally slept.

While she's doing my hair, I signed into my twitter mn jwale.

You know what I did? I searched for Sultan..
5eer wsho bs bshof his tweets!
All of his tweets was sad..
He tweeted a month ago “ W7shtna ya 7bayeb shlounk 3sak 6ayeb?”
And another one was “ 3ameen a7bk ~” but it was two or three months ago.
I want to cry. I'm really sad for him.. I DO NOT LOVE HIM!! bs 9dg 7ramm.. And I miss him
I dm-ed him.
Me: Hello :p
I KNOW I SHOULDN'T TALK TO HIM.
@Sultan: Heeyyyy
Me: Kefk?
@Sultan: 7mdellah tmam ente?
Me: Kwaisa bs mtwtra..
@Sultan: La tetwtreen mob 9ayr ela kl 5eer enshallah

Ya3ne lw ene mkana w 3rft enah y7ake bnt eb yoom zwajna b39b 9ra7tn..
Me: La slamtk, bye
Before deactivating his account, he tweeted “I just want to be with you, that's all. Really!”
I teared. I'm not sure if he means me or someone else but a tear fell by itself.
Thank god I haven't put make-up yet!
I finished everything and I waited in my room.
Maha, Ghada and Dana were with me.
They were calming me down 3shan mra knt mtwtra.
Btw, I haven't told anyone about the dm! Even Maha.
I'm done with everything.
---
OMG. It's the time for the zfa!!
7mdellah it's 3a2li mafe kther nas ya3nee.
They gave me heavy flowers, and I'm wearing heels 6b3n.
BUT YOU KNOW WHAT I'M AFRAID OF? TO FALL.
Specially that I'm coming from the stairs!!
Dana and Ghada went downstairs but Maha is waiting with me 3shan t3lmne mta bl'9ab6 anzl.
We waited for seconds then she said yalla!!
W9alt lel kosha!
The feeling is really nice but scary. Flashes of camera, a lot of people looking at me and everything!
I was walking with a fake smile. Mra mra knt 5ayfa a6ee7.
Kl a7d ja yslm and all I was saying “Allah ybark feek. Ameen.”
And it's the time for the men..
Ele d5lo, Baba, Abdulaziz, Abdulaziz's father and 5ale.
They were really fast, mob zaye k2ne amshe 3la gshr bee6'.
We took pictures and finally the men left. It's Abdulaziz and I.
He was sitting next to me.
Then he whispered “Esh mfro6' agool?”
I laughed at him. I love his stupidness!
I whispered back “Madre”
We went to cut the cake, and to throw the flowers.
I threw it and I really don't know who took it.
Abdulaziz and I went to straight to the airport after the wedding, we're going to Tahiti. Bora Bora!
---
5 YEARS LATER.
Maha, Ghada and Dana got married!
Hanouf have one daughter that calls me auntie mishoo. I love her!
Saad got married to someone, bs ma3rf esmaha.
Sultan is married and have one daughter. Her name is Msha3l! When I knew about her name I cried.
And me? I'm pregnant in the 3rd month.
Abdulaziz told me if she's a girl, her name will be my choise and if he's a boy he'll name him Sultan! Mo 3la aboh, bs 3shan when he was younger everyone used to call him Abo Sultan. Mn ho bzr.
What a coincidence?
Ohh I almost forgot! The guy with the identical car? Remember him?
He's my doctor but he doesn't remember me. Bs ana ma nseet shaklah! Small world 9a7?
THE END
Hope you enjoyed it.
Thank you all for being the best readers an author could have. Without your supports, I couldn't have done it. Best of luck, Bye :***
